Best Things to Do in Ho Chi Minh City, with kids
Independence Palace is 77% Kids-Friendly

Recommended visit duration: 1-2 hours

Saigon Skydeck is 74% Kids-Friendly
Kids 4–12 pay less and like telescopes and touch screens, but there are no play zones, shows, or kid toilets; expect a short yet enjoyable stop rather than a full family outing.
